Racing Incident Report

ROBUST MOMENTUM was withdrawn on 18.10.14 by order of the Stewards acting on veterinary advice (blood abnormality) and was replaced by Standby Declared Starter INDIGO WAY (H W Lai). Before being allowed to race again, ROBUST MOMENTUM will be subjected to an official veterinary examination.
HEI HEI POSH shifted out at the start and bumped OXFORD CHARLEY.
SURE CHAMP began only fairly and shortly after the start was crowded for room between INDIGO WAY and ACTIVISM which shifted out.
From wide barriers, DRAGON BACHELOR and SPICY DRAGON were shifted across behind runners in the early stages.
After SUPER STRIKE and HEI HEI POSH raced tight approaching the 1600 Metres, HEI HEI POSH was shifted out away from the heels of SUPER STRIKE passing the 1600 Metres when that horse shifted out slightly. SPICY DRAGON, which was following HEI HEI POSH, was inconvenienced in consequence.
For some distance passing the winning post on the first occasion, REAL GENERAL was awkwardly placed close to the heels of SPIRIT SOARING.
Near the 1250 Metres, DRAGON BACHELOR, which was racing fiercely, shifted out when being checked away from the heels of HEI HEI POSH. TERRIFIC MASTER , which was following DRAGON BACHELOR, was shifted away from the heels of that horse in consequence.
Rounding the Home Turn, DRAGON BACHELOR was awkwardly placed inside the heels of HEI HEI POSH.
For the majority of the race, SPICY DRAGON travelled wide and without cover.
When questioned regarding the disappointing performance of TERRIFIC MASTER, G Mosse stated that he was asked to ride TERRIFIC MASTER quietly in the early stages from a wide barrier as the horse had over-raced at its most recent start when racing without cover. He said he was advised that although TERRIFIC MASTER would be back in the field, the horse possesses a good finishing sprint and it was therefore felt that it would be able to overcome having to be ridden quietly. He said in accordance with his instructions, he shifted TERRIFIC MASTER across behind runners in the early stages. He said although TERRIFIC MASTER raced in a three wide position from approaching the 1200 Metres, he was able to obtain cover behind SPICY DRAGON throughout the middle part of the race. He said when SPICY DRAGON shifted out making the turn after the 600 Metres, he positioned TERRIFIC MASTER to the inside of that horse as he did not want to be taken unnecessarily wide were he to have attempted to improve his position around SPICY DRAGON. He added he was able to commence to ride TERRIFIC MASTER along rounding the Home Turn, however, the horse did not quicken as he thought it would, rather it took some time to gather momentum. He stated after the race he advised connections that TERRIFIC MASTER would be better suited by races run at Sha Tin. A veterinary inspection of TERRIFIC MASTER immediately following the race did not show any significant findings, however, the horse was unable to be scoped due to being fractious.
ACTIVISM, SPIRIT SOARING and OXFORD CHARLEY were sent for sampling.
